Magpie catered a lacrosse potluck for us, and even during quarantine, they made it quick and seamless! I had ordered the mushroom pizza and the Hawaiian sausage one.

My bf and I wanted to check this place out after hog's closed and were delighted that they are open during shelter in place! We ordered the la picosita pizza online and a jar of beer. Pick up was a breeze. The pizza was on the oilier side but it was delicious! Thin crust was nice. The Calabrian chili gave it wonderful kick, but it wasn't too spicy. I do wish there was more goat cheese, but maybe that would've overpowered the pizza? Definitely down to try more pizza and their house...read full review
